NHTSA Complaint #11194973 — 2013 HONDA ACCORD

PUSH BUTTON START IS NOT RESPONDING ON A REGULAR BASIS. WHEN BUTTON IS PUSHED,THE BATTERY IS ACTIVATED AND ALL LIGHTS AND RADIO ARE OPERATIONAL, HOWEVER THE CAR DOES NOT START. BATTERY HAS BEEN TESTED AND ALL CONNECTIONS SEEM TO BE WORKING PROPERLY. V6 MODELS OF THIS CAR HAVE HAD A SERVICE BULLETIN 16-002 ISSUED FOR STARTER, HOWEVER MY CAR IS A FOUR CYLINDER AND THEREFORE NOT ELIGIBLE TO BE LOOKED AT UNDER SERVICE BULLETIN.. ISSUE CAN HAPPEN AFTER SEVERAL STARTS DURING THE DAY, AFTER SITTING IN COLD OR GARAGE. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHETHER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING OR NOT. CAR HAS 102,000 MILES ON IT, AND IS IN GOOD CONDITION. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THIS SAME SITUATION WITH MY MODEL, SEEMS AS THOUGH IT IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS WITH THE V6. THIS IS AN ONGOING AND RANDOM ISSUE. I HAVE NEVER BEEN UNABLE TO START THE CAR AFTER SEVERAL TRIES, BUT NOT SURE IF THIS LUCK WILL END SOON.
